Sabres Snap Streak, Face Goalie Dilemma

0:00For the NHL, it's March 13th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. The Buffalo Sabers are leading the Atlantic Division after a solid 6-3 win over the San Jose Sharks. They snapped an 8-game winning streak with a close 2-1 loss to the Washington Capitals on Thursday. Despite dominating play, especially in shots, they couldn't seal the deal late. Their fourth line has been on fire lately, with players like Sam Carrick, Beck Malinstein, and Peyton Krebs driving the energy. Carrick scored in the first period up a slick no-look assist from Malinstein, who brings hits, fights, and big plays every night. This group sets the tone, and could shine in the playoffs. Fans and analysts see the loss as a blip, thanks to strong goal-tending on both sides. The Capitals Logan Thompson stopped 29-30 shots to keep them alive. Buffalo's Uco Peca-Luconin was sharp too, turning aside 20-22, including some prime chances. Now the Sabers face a good dilemma in net for the postseason.

1:02Alex Lyon boasts an 18-win record, 0.914 Saber-Sanage, and 2.65 goals against average. Luconin sits at 15 wins with similar stats, but underlying metrics lean toward Leon. The bottom defense pair needs sorting too. They bounce back with a home game against the Toronto May Believes, then hit the road out west. Tampa Bay Lightning lurchs close behind, so they can't let up now. Thanks to our sponsor for supporting today's coverage. You know what is better than earbuds in bed? No earbuds at all.
